hi, everyone,

i just pick up my manual 2011 e92 m3 for one month, and just finish the 2000km inspection on it, and i found the transmission is shift hard from 1st gear to 2nd gear, and also found the problem on clutch, because everytime i push clutch and shift, after that i ease out on the clutch, but is no feeling on the clutch , it should be some power push my heel back right >> i just feel very soft from the clutch, then i come back and complain, dealership change the clutch master cylinder for me .. and said for M car , the noise when i shifting is 1st to 2nd gear is normal, it just like the mechanical sound , but i can't accept that why the M3 clutch is just like a Civic feeling when i ease out on the clutch , mechanic told me that is a sport car , it should be like that feeling, and my friends think that should be problem with the clutch pressure plate, but they don't accept my complain. so are your guys got the same problem with me ?? or it just like what the mechanic said, that is normal feeling for a M3 clutch ???

the clutch pedal has a springy feel when returning...it's not loose as you describe.

it is very light...lighter than most, but there is a decent amount of push back to steady state

you can remove the spring that makes it lighter...there's a DIY somewhere on the forum

makes it heavier
